Not sure if anyone else has done this, but the larger GB phones are nice for carrying blu ray digital movies (converted by handbrake using the normal or high profile setting) and showing on a big screen tv away from home.

Well, I guess the 64 GB is necessary if you use it as your all-encompassing gadget. Like both Josh and Irish Jedi, I have over 1,000 songs but I keep those mainly on my PC and still use an iPod.
I think I'll stick with a 32 GB.

Indeed, I have done this a couple of times as well. My gf lives in Florida so it's always easier to throw a few digital movies on the iPhone when I go down to visit. They actually look/sound great on her 55" TV.

Okay, I'll bite. How is this done? (And can it be done with an iPad as well?)

You need two pieces of software - handbrake and a program that removes "restrictions" from movie discs.
The output is compatible with anything apple. Just drag and drop into your iTunes account.

Pre-ordered a 16GB Black & Slate last night. I feel like I'm one of the few who went for the 16. lol

Strange. I may be wrong, but I remember receiving the new iPad/iPad 3 by mail on launch day.

I think they mean 2 weeks after launch day.

Two weeks after launch, Josh.

Out of curiosity is there a reason why ordering at an actual Verizon store gets you one on launch day vs. ordering online, despite them using what appeared to be the same exact online web page and despite the phones shipping straight to my house? Are stores allotted a certain number and using a different website from home ordering through Verizon?
That makes sense. I hate waiting but don't feel like dealing with a store either.

yes....Stores get so many to sell...if you order online it comes straight from Verizon/ATT.....so if you have several ATT stores in your area each store will get a certain amount...same as best buy...
Cool. The only reason I went in to one is because Badmoon said they were backordered online. I checked and sure enough it was saying the 26th at the time. When I went into the store my friend that works there took me to a computer and had me sign onto my account. Everything looked exactly the same as what I was seeing at home except it said the 21st. I didn't know it shipped to my house though. I thought I had to go in and pick it up which is why I was a bit confused as to why they make you order it in store.
I'm the same way. I have a 32 gig ipad with really nothing on it.
better to have it & not need it than need it and not have it

So those of you that say the iPhone can be easily had in a store on launch day, where are you located?
In the metropolitan DC area, you'll only get a store bought iPhone if you camped out days before.
